Microgrid Upstream

4 FAQs about Microgrid Upstream

How can microgrids improve grid resiliency?

Advancements in technology are increasing the value of microgrids. With the latest technology, microgrids can "add to grid resiliency, support commercial industrial loads, manage regional demand and provide support for grid reliability in rural communities,” the spokesperson said. Multiple models

What is a microgrid and how does it work?

A microgrid is a group of interconnected loads and distributed energy resources within clearly defined electrical boundaries that acts as a single controllable entity with respect to the grid.2 A microgrid can operate in either grid-connected or in island mode, including entirely of-grid applications. Figure 1 shows one example of a microgrid.

How can microgrids improve the reliability of distribution and transmission systems?

One approach to producing this technology is to demonstrate how microgrids, especially networked microgrids, can help to improve the reliability of distribution and transmission systems by providing them with reserves, i.e., capacity reserve, operational reserve, regulation reserve, etc.

How can a microgrid controller be integrated with a distribution management system?

First, the microgrid controller can be integrated with the utility's distribution management system (DMS) directly in the form of centralized management. Second, the microgrid controller can be integrated indirectly using decentralized management via a Distributed Energy Resources Management System (DERMS).
